asimplechordI totally got fucked today, and there were no orgasms involved. Seriously. Invitrogen screws its customers when it comes to shipping. I ordered one $12 item and a set of oligonucleotides that came to a grand total of $18.75, and they had to be shipped separately. $12.50 shipping fee for the oligos, $15 shipping for the other item, then a $22.50 "hazardous materials fee" on top of that.
They're fricken AMINO ACIDS IN STERILE BUFFERED SOLUTION. THEY AREN'T HAZARDOUS, EVEN IF YOU DRINK THEM. I guess if you inhale them, you might drown, but still.

Today's other O.o moment goes to Panic At The Disco, who said of Glastonbury: “We don't really have a festival in the US that compares to something of that length or that many people.” (source)
Um, what?
Bonnaroo? 80k people, 4 days of music pretty much round the clock? Austin City Limits Festival? 65k people, three days with 7 or more stages? Glastonbury is the oldest and largest, definitely. But seriously. Have they not been told about these festivals? Or Coachella (admittedly smaller) or the Virgin Records Festival (younger and shorter)? I know they know about Lollapalooza.
